Welcome to Cavalier Rescue USA

Brody in Kansas City, MO

Brody is a 9 month old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel with a heart of gold. This sweet boy absolutely adores people and is happiest when he’s getting cuddles, following his foster humans around, or romping with his foster brothers. He’s playful, sociable, and always ready for his next adventure.

Brody has classic puppy energy—he loves toys, chews, enjoys outings, trips and long walks, and brings joy wherever he goes. He also has a gentle, affectionate side that makes him incredibly easy to fall in love with. Brody is happy entertaining himself with toys and naps! Despite his young age, he’s already potty trained (on a schedule) and is crate trained. While he may bark for a few minutes after going into his crate, it doesn’t last long and he will sleep through the night.

Brody is a good eater. He loves breakfast and dinner time with treats in between. He does a dance on his hind legs as you approach with his food!

He is still learning to walk properly on a leash, but with his foster brothers and sister as guides, he is on track to being the perfect walking buddy.

While we don’t know too much about Brody’s life before coming to Cavalier Rescue USA, we do know that Brody was found with a breeder who was selling puppies outside of a Walmart. Thankfully, he’s now safe and thriving. He has been neutered, is up to date on all age-appropriate vaccines and is current on heartworm prevention and flea and tick prevention. He has a microchip, but his new family will need to make sure it is registered to them. He also has a slight overbite, but this just adds to his cuteness.

Brody has not met any cats (as far as we know) or small children. He gets very excited when meeting new people, so any introductions will need to be supervised. He would do well with a secure, physically fenced in yard as he loves to explore.

He would be a great solo dog or a member of a pack! He would do well with someone who works from home most of the time (as he would be a great office mate, see photo below).

If you’re looking for a sweet, playful, people-loving puppy who will grow into the perfect companion, Brody may be your guy. He’s ready to trade puppyhood uncertainty for a lifetime of love, security, and belly rubs.

Tanner in Chesterfield, MO

Update 1-5-26: We have received several good applications for this pup so aren’t taking more for now. Thank you!

Tanner is a handsome 4-year-old Cavalier born on 7/27/21 who sports a beautiful Ruby coat! He is at a good weight at 20 pounds and turns heads wherever he goes! He could be a successful diplomat since he loves everyone including other pups and kitties. He is a curious pup who loves to introduce himself. He has blended into his foster family with three Cavalier pups, five kitties, 2 young teens, visitors and adults without skipping a beat.

Tanner has begun to play with and carry around small stuffed animals. He has started to be interested in paper to chew so that is kept out of his reach. As the family watches TV, Tanner often can often be interested in the show also. His hearing is acute so he will share with his foster Mom that he heard something. He is not a barker unless necessary.

Tanner could be nicknamed “Shadow” as he wants to be with his foster mom, preferably on her lap, but will settle reluctantly next to her or on the floor at her feet. He often will lay in his foster mom’s arms like a baby, very relaxed. If he is not near her, he is cuddled up next to a Cavalier pup in the family.

Tanner sleeps through the night in a covered kennel. He eats Purina One in the morning after he has been outside and evening around 5 or 6. He is working on potty training. He likes to roam the enclosed yard. Leash training is in progress and he likes to go for walks. He is an excellent car rider. He has a harness attached to the elevated carseat.

Since coming to Cavalier Rescue USA, Tanner has had a neuter and dental. He takes no medications other than monthly Heartguard and flea and tick preventatives. He is heart clear. In addition he is cooperative when getting a bath. He likes to be dapper!

Tanner is a loyal, affectionate, and healthy young man looking for a loving home. He will complete a very fortunate family. If you can provide Tanner with his loving forever home, please fill out our online application if you haven’t already. Then email cavalierrescuesarah@gmail.com to let her know you are interested in Tanner.

Mindy in Nashville, TN

Here’s a picture of Mindy with her new family…

We are thrilled to introduce you to Mindy, a beautiful 8-year-old female Ruby Cavalier, who is eagerly looking for her forever home. Mindy has the sweetest disposition and an enormous capacity for love. She absolutely adores people and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Her gentle nature and friendly demeanor make her a delightful addition to any household.

This lovely girl came to us after being rescued from a puppy mill that shut down. She spent her life to date churning out litter after litter of puppies. Despite her challenging past, Mindy has shown remarkable resilience and adaptability. She is doing great with house training and is quickly learning the routines of a loving home.

Mindy has been spayed, is microchipped, and is in excellent health. At 22 pounds, she is the perfect size for snuggling and companionship.

We believe that Mindy’s past has only made her appreciate the warmth and kindness of a caring family even more. She is ready to leave her past behind and start a new chapter filled with love, play, and joy.

If you have been searching for a loyal, affectionate, and sweet companion, Mindy might be the perfect match for you. We invite you to meet her and see for yourself how special she is.

Beau in Charlotte, NC

Here is Beau with his new family…

Beau is a devastatingly sweet 3-year-old boy whose greatest joy in life is snuggling as close to his people as he can get. A breeder surrender who spent his first 2.5 years in a kennel, he is determined to make up for every bit of love and affection he went without. This sweet boy melts into you the moment you sit down, presses his snoot into your neck, and will happily snooze on your lap for as long as you will let him.

Beau came to us with grade 4 bilateral luxating patellas that caused him significant discomfort, yet he remained spirited and playful with a heart wide open. With the support of Cavalier Rescue USA, the care of a dedicated veterinarian, and the love of his foster parents (and two foster sisters!), Beau bravely underwent two corrective knee surgeries. For the first time in his young life, Beau has been able to experience life without pain, and he has taken full advantage of it.

Over the past several months, Beau’s personality has truly blossomed. Having discovered the joy of snoozing on a comfy couch, he has fully embraced family life and the affection that comes with it. There is nowhere Beau would rather be than by your side. Whether that means going for a walk, hopping in the car, playing fetch in the backyard, napping nearby while you work, or curling up after dinner, Beau is happiest when he is included. He is loving, joyful, and deeply devoted, and will bring endless happiness to his forever family.

Beau is thriving physically and emotionally. He is an ideal weight at 19 pounds with a taller, slender, athletic frame, and is fully vetted, neutered, and up to date on vaccinations. He loves other dogs and has bonded closely with his foster sister, Rosie, a gentle soul who helped guide him into life on the plushy side. He is unbothered by cats, though he may bark at them occasionally.

We think Beau would do wonderfully as an only dog due to how deeply he loves his people, but he could also thrive in a home with another friendly, laid-back dog. Unsurprisingly, Beau is fantastic with children. He will happily chase toys for as long as little hands are willing to throw them, and he not only tolerates enthusiastic cuddles but returns them in kind. He would make a wonderful playmate and gentle companion for kids.

Beau’s forever home must include plenty of human companionship. He has spent too much of his life alone and does best when his people are around. He makes an excellent sidekick and loves tagging along for car rides, brewery visits, and dog-friendly outings, greeting everyone he meets with tail wags, spins, and kisses. He is generally a quiet dog but will bark at other dogs, delivery drivers, and animals on TV.

Beau enjoys having a securely fenced yard where he can sniff, explore, and play fetch, and he also benefits from at least one daily walk. He has made great progress with house training and does very well going potty outside, though he may still have the occasional accident as he continues to settle into home life.

If you think you are the right fit for Beau and live within a reasonable driving distance of Charlotte, NC, please complete our online application. Then, please email NC Rescue Coordinator, Angie, at nccavalierrescuemom@gmail.com and let her know of your interest.
